Hello there, Here is a little bit about myself. My name is Lana and I have been passionate about nursing and taking care of others since I was 7 years old. Growing up, I had a sick mother who has always been under medical care and it is since then I had an opportunity to be in contact with doctors and learn much about the healthcare field. I graduated with a nursing diploma over 20 years ago, and have been taking care of a wide arrange of senior citizens for 11 years in Chicagoland area. My most experience is live-in and live-out senior care of elderly with diabetes, dementia, Alzheimer's, etc. I am dependable and flexible provider of physical and emotional care to the elderly. Please review the list of services I provide and do not hesitate to ask questions. I have my own vehicle and a valid IL Driver's license, clean driving record and background check. I would bring references to an interview. Please contact me if you think I would fit for the job. Warm regards, -Lana

My mother had ALS for 5 years and my brother,sister and I cared for her until the last 6 months and hospice came in to help. My best friends mother had Alzheimers, so I moved in with them to take care of her until she passed, about 9 mos later. I am currently sitting 3rd shift for my Uncle at a rehab facility who has just been diagnosed with dementia. Not sure how long he will be there, as he is not improving very much. I've been to seminars at this home and others on Dementia /Alzheimer's as it seems to be increasing in our population. Sadly my Uncle passed away in January of 2018. I have been in the customer service area for over 30 years, as I enjoy people and love to help, sometimes to a fault. I am 'very' dependable, rarely get sick (as I always get a flu shot) and worked in a hospital so had all of my shots in Aug. of 2010. My family knows they should always call me first if they need any type of help, as it gives me great pleasure. I truly am a giver, not a taker, and go above and beyond. Normally I do not have to be 'asked' to help or do something, I just do! Resume can be faxed also. I am very able to help around the house, light cleaning, cooking, laundry and sweeping or mopping. I always will try to help and stay or add a day if need be.
